Not the most innovative deck but it works... it's just the basic melira, sylvok outcast/phyrexian unlife lock
http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=283391

The only lockdown deck I own was a present from a friend. It uses Mist of Stagnation combo'd with Planar Void to prevent anyone from untapping. Here's one version of the deck (I've changed it a few times since I got it)

Well, people can't do much without creatures or lands so I guess that this deck could be considered a lockout deck.

Although, people tend to hate this deck with a passion.


Here is another entry, although it is only a partially finished deck. Still need to tweak it a little bit to get it where I want it. Hope that you think it is interesting. http://www.mtgvault.com/ViewDeck.aspx?DeckID=283461

Thanks for the responses guys.

[QUOTE=issizz]Create a multiplayer deck that locks down your part of the board and then wins the game. What i mean by this is, protection against life total, mill, counter, etc.
It doesnt need to have a recognizable win mech(draw out 1 turn at a time, etc).


Restrictions:
No 1st turn Locks.
No Orim's Chant/Iso Scepter.
No infinite comobs.

Here is mine:

I unfortunately end up 1v4ing because as soon as i get my soft lock(Wheel of Sun and Moon and Energy Field), no one can do anything.

Have fun.[/QUOTE]

Dang, just looked at your deck. That impressive. I certainly wouldn't want to be on the recieving end of its punishment. Great deck.

Thanks man. I enjoy the slow decks that hold off people while you steadily put soft locks into play until the whole board is locked. The only problem is i always get ganged up on in multiplayer, so i was looking for some suggestions. Google ran out of them '_'

Very nicely done. Im trying to think of some way to get around this deck :D

I like the soft lock with melira and unlife. It is unique, however i tend not to rely on creatures too much for locks. Most decks i run in to are more creature-hate than enchantment/artifact.

And also... Eternal Witness might be better than recollect if you intend on swinging to win.

Sadly the deck has one gaping whole, its slow speed. This type of lock need to come out asap and with the Mists costing 5, it doesn't come out fast enough (my group plays a lot of agro decks).

Yeah I tend to try not too rely on creatures for a lock as well... That is the main reason for the addition of the shield of the oversouls... This is just the first deck that I could think of

Also, you are correct eternal witness is better, it just slipped my mind :)

Here's the latest version.

Would killing someone during their upkeep considered a lockdown. If so

Hmm... I am not sure if it does, but that is an interesting concept.

Without meaning to be a complete lock-down deck my clone deck often ends up doing that for a long time regardless. especially in multi-player

anyways here's my submission:
